We have been selling motorcycle gear for 14 years now, and one of the questions we keep getting asked is "what do you wear on the bike?" We highly rate all of the items we sell, or we wouldn't have selected them in the first place. But when it comes to our personal preferences, we are fortunate enough to be able to cherry-pick exactly what suits our needs and style.
Time for our next Staff Picks video! Our next subject spends more time behind the camera than in front of it, although his custom Triumph Scrambler is often the star of the show. Tim hits London streets with Will Hatlapa, the adept custodian of our social media realm and the visionary eye behind our product imagery. If it has graced our Instagram feed, Will shot it and sent it out into the digital ether.
Our next subject is our Head of Operations: Seb. Seb makes sure all of your orders get processed and fulfilled smoothly and keeps all systems at UR well-oiled and ticking over. He also goes through bikes like a kid goes through candy… Have a look at his current line-up (with a V8 as a bonus) and find out what gear he wears on his bikes. After years at Urban Rider and many miles in the saddle, he knows what he’s talking about!
You might have been in touch with our next subject: as our head of customer service, Izabela goes out of her way to answer any customer queries. She puts a lot of miles on her MT-07, whether she’s commuting or enjoying some weekend shenanigans, so she knows what she’s talking about. She has incredible product knowledge and boy is she picky when selecting her own riding gear. Have a look or a read.
The next member of staff to make an appearance is Rob, our website manager. When he's not working on our beloved homepage - which you obviously have bookmarked - he's tinkering on his bikes. Luckily our website updates see quicker progress than his bike builds! Rob never shies away from racking up the miles and spends a lot of time on two wheels, so he's the perfect person to tell you what motorcycle gear to shortlist.
Tim became the face of the Urban Rider youtube channel two years ago and has since been guiding our customers through their purchasing journey with his in-depth video reviews. As part of the job, Tim has needed to get familiar with every product that gets added to the ever-growing Urban Rider catalogue, so his opinion on gear carries extra weight. Which items has he deemed worthy to be added to his own motorcycle wardrobe? We have dusted off Andrew and sent him on a mission to find out.
Allow us to introduce Phil Catlin. Phil has been our warehouse manager for the past 6 years and knows a thing or two about the gear we stock. With an impressive commute, Phil puts more miles on his bike (and his gear) than most of us. If you want a straight-talking, no-nonsense run-down of the things we sell, he's your guy.
Next up on our staff picks is our shop manager Jerome Gagnebé. After 7 years of running our London store, JJ is following his heart back to the French countryside. What better way to send him off than to have him talk us through his favourite bits of gear. Anyone who has ever met JJ knows you’re in for an entertaining, yet insightful watch. On y va!
Next up on our staff picks is our content manager Morgan Ager. Morgan went through a whole slew of bikes before falling in love with his Triumph Scrambler XE. Morgan's gear is perfectly suited to his bike and riding style.
Next up on our staff picks is our head of content and purchasing Laurens Vanherstraeten. Having worked at Urban Rider for 7 years it's fair to say he's collected a lot of clothing. He's had a tough time picking his favourites, but ended up with a solid selection.
So what makes the cut? We thought we'd take you through a few of our personal riding outfits starting with a familiar face. Andrew is one of Urban Rider's co-founders and long-serving face of our Youtube channel. Let's take a look at his wardrobe.
